Taller socks, more coverage.

High socks are still on the growth curve these days. So for those high cycling socks fans, Assos produces the Summer Mille High Socks. It's just like the regular Mille, only 3cm higher, for a cuff height of 15cm.

The Assos Summer Mille High Socks were woven from a 70% polyester, 30% elastic fiber blend, and they've been treated with an anti-bacterial application that minimizes odors. Their skinweb design dictates that the bottom is a thin layer of fabric and the top is mesh. The mesh runs from behind the toes all the way up past the ankle. The cuff is a single layer that is rolled over at the top for a smooth look.

The Assos Summer Mille High Socks are available in sizes 0 (35-38), I (38-42), and II (43-46), and they come in the colors Black and White.

I've put it through the wringer

These are one of my favorite sock for warmer weather rides. They feel great in terms of comfort, fit and quality. They rotated through about 2 seasons now and show minimal signs of wear. Assos stuff is not notch.. at least all the items I've tried.

Not to high .

Familiarity:
I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

These socks are thin and snug. They fit nice and seem to be very breathable. I wouldn't choose these as an early season sock, but for about any other time they will work great. They claim to be tall but I would say that they are pretty average compared to other tall cycling socks I use. I am 5'6 and these ride right below the meaty part of my calves.
